Bob, a handsome dude, walked into a sports bar around 9:58 PM.
 
He sat down next to a blonde at the bar and stared up at the TV. The 10:00 news was now on. The news crew was covering a story of a man on a ledge1 of a tall building preparing to jump.
 
The blonde looked at Bob and said, "Do you think he'll jump?" Bob said, "You know, I bet2 he'll jump."
 
The blonde replied, "Well, I bet he won't."
 
Bob placed $20 on the bar and said, "You're on!"
 
Just as the blonde placed her money on the bar, the guy did a swan3 dive off of the building, falling to his death.
 
The blonde was very upset and handed her $20 to Bob, saying, "fair's fair. Here's your money."
 
Bob replied, "I can't take your money; I saw this earlier on the 5 o'clock news and so I knew he would jump."
 
The blonde replied, "I did too, but I didn't think he'd do it again!"
 
Bob took the money.
